What is your short (less than 3 months) and longer term outlook on semiconductor stocks?
Short term probably not buying. Looking for inflation to level off and China to stay open. Long term semis will still be a great investment, but hard to say if it’ll be the same ones or if American or other Western based companies taking market share. Long term I’d like to invest in semiconductors being manufactured in North America or South America

What are consumers buying right now that needs to be slowed down? I haven’t been spending a ton on luxury items. Is the general population spending lavishly?

I’m not understanding. The point of increasing rates is to control inflation and reduce consumer spending. What are consumers buying right now that needs to be slowed down? I haven’t been spending a ton on luxury items. Is the general population spending lavishly?
I’ll be honest, none of the media coverage makes a lot of sense to me. From a practical standpoint you need to create a recession to discourage purchasing in order to fight inflation. But, every article I’ve read fails to address the fact that a recession is imminent if you eliminate demand.

I think the mathematical estimates are that rates needs to be raised about 6-9 points in order to get inflation below 4%.
I think the monthly increase is a given and frankly, it should be more than 75 basis points per increase.
